How to Remove the Honda Lingpai Center Console?
2 Answers
The method for removing the Honda Lingpai center console is as follows: 1. Remove the ashtray; 2. Remove the CD disc storage box below the CD player; 3. Locate and remove the two 4mm bolts underneath the CD player. The Honda Lingpai is a compact 4-door, 5-seater sedan with dimensions of 4756mm in length, 1804mm in width, and 1509mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2730mm and a fuel tank capacity of 40 liters. The Honda Lingpai is equipped with a 1.5L engine, with a maximum power speed of 6000 rpm and a maximum torque speed of 5000 rpm. It adopts a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout, with MacPherson strut independent suspension at the front and a torsion beam non-independent suspension at the rear.
Last month, I personally disassembled the Honda Lingpai's center console. The steps were quite simple but required careful attention. First, locate the plastic cover on the side of the center console from the driver's seat, and gently pry it open with your hands or a plastic pry tool—avoid using excessive force to prevent scratches. Inside, you'll find several Phillips-head screws; use an appropriate screwdriver to remove them. After opening, slowly lift the center console cover, being mindful of the connected air conditioning controls and radio wiring harness below. Disconnect each connector one by one, and avoid pulling forcefully to prevent damaging the ports. The entire process takes about half an hour, requiring only basic wrenches and pry tools. I did this to install a USB charging port, and the result was good, but I recommend beginners prepare spare clips in case any break during the process. For safety, remember to turn off the engine and disconnect the battery's negative terminal to prevent accidental short circuits. When reassembling, align the positions and screw holes properly—it's not difficult but requires some patience.
